It smiles the FC Barcelona, as one of the angular pieces of his medullary zone, Pedri González, already exhibits in a good physical state. In spite of not being to the tope regarding shooting futbolístico, as after his return to the alone club saw 33 minutes in front of the Real Sociedad and 31' in front of the Shakhtar, Xavi gave him the opportunity to be headline in front of the Alavés and the Tenerifean answered with grow.
The midfield player was 81 minutes in field and showed, to tip of good game, the necessary that it is his presence in the Catalan cast, reaffirming the approach that the Barcelona trainer put in an opportunity on the table: "When Pedri has the balloon, happen things".
Pedri Gave him another nuance to the Barcelona game
The ex of the UD The Palms was one of the players determinants in the combined culé in the duel in front of the Alavés. Although it did not have a brilliant first-half, like the Barça in general, to measure that went developing the actions, the Tenerifean went settling and being participatory in several facets of the game, no only in offensive terms, but also collaborating in defence.
Pedri, enjoying of a remarkable tactical intelligence, knew to adapt to what needed the Barça in each context. When the Barcelona held the gale of game of the 'albiazul', knew to throw backwards to give a hand in appearances like the recovery of balloon and the 'pressing' to the rivals, attaining, between other things, an effective entrance and two intercepciones of the spherical.
The Tenerifean adueñó of the medullary zone of the Barça
Now, in his speciality, the creation of game, also saw him big destellos of quality, generating a lot of noise in the last three chambers of field. It was one of the players that more received the balloon with a total of 123 touch, collaborating a total of 98 effective deliveries (90% of tarpaulin). Besides, it went one of which more key strokes gave with a total of two, only surpassed by Ilkay Gündoğan and also positioned like one of which bigger occasions elaborated with one.
In the party was about to to leave his stamp after a very good sending to the area that, unfortunately for Fermín López, could not transform in goal for remaining without angle of shot. But further of this, in the meeting gave the feeling that it always attained to find the necessary pass to connect the centre of the field with the forward, contributing pause and clarity, covering to the long and width the medullary zone.
Definitely, an element that the FC Barcelona needs that the Tenerifean was in his best state of form to attain change the rhythm of the Barcelona team. The midfield player evidenció the need of an element of his style to give him dynamism to a medullary zone that, in the day of today against the Alavés, moved a bit better, but without arriving still to his splendour.
